Looking to purchase a late 2011 Macbook Pro 13" from a friend, is it worth it?

He is asking for $400, which seems like a fair price to me. However, any feedback or comments are greatly appreciated. I'll mainly be using it for school and video editing. I also plan to add another 4 gigs of RAM and an SSD, so that will definitely give it a nice boost.

Please give me your thoughts, thanks!

Might be small for video editing in particular. $400 is an okay deal imo

Thanks for your input, I don't think the screen will effect me because i'll have it hooked up to external display most of the time.

A 13 foot screen might prove a bit ungainly. 😉

Good catch there, haha! With the way Apple is heading, we may see a 13' screen in the future :lol:
